HEART DISEASE OR POISON
.. L. SYLVESTER DIES SUDDENLY
In NO. 4 FIRE ENGINE HOUSE.
Which Indicated an Over
dose Of Morphine, Carelsssly
Swallowed.

Between 8 and 10 O'Clock yesterday
mo ming, Mr.. Jos. L. Sylvester APP
peared at the No. 4 engine house with
p box of cigars. Being on intimate
|terms Of friendship with nearly all the
|fremen, he distributed his cigars free
ly. In the general conversation which
followed, he complained mora than
once OF great pain in the reg'on of his
heart. Finally il became 80 intense
that he asked to be allowed to use one
OF the beds in the house, where he
might lay down and rest. The request
was granted, Engineer Cox assisting
him, and alter the sufferer appeared
comfortable, went down stairs. A few
moments later some of the fireme j
were attracted by gro ans from the
room occupied by Sylvester,
Upon entering the chamber
they found him in dense perspiration,
his eyes wearing a ghastly look, skin
turned almost black in color, and in a
semi-conscious state. While one of
their number hurried for medical as
eiBtance, the Iensinder did every
thing in their power to afford relief.
DR.. Winston soon arrived and worked
persisteptly with the sufferer, hut he
died within a few minutes. His re-
Imains were taken In charge by the
Knights Of Pythiss, Of which order he
was q member in good standing and
turned over to z. M. Stanley for
burial.
An inquest by Coroner Powell re-
suited in a verdict Of death from
heart disease, but report reveals a
slightly different cause. When DR..
Winston first entered the. room he re-
marked that Sylye,ter's appearance
indicated that he was suffering from
an overdose OF morphine. A search
followed, and disclosed an empty bot
tie bearing the label of that dug. A
witness was also found who stated
he had seen Sylvester drink from the
bottle and afterwards squeeze juice
from q lemon into his mouth. The
lemon wss in his possession when he
entered the engine house. 1t is not
supposed, however, that he swallowed
the morphine with suicidal intent, but
merely though force OF habit, the
overdose resulting from mistaken
judgment.
Sylvester was a railroad engineer
and employed on the switch engine Of
the Memphis and Little Rock r lad in
this city. He YVES rather painfully in
jured in an accident in the yards of
that company the latter part of Feb
rusry last, from which he never &C.
tirely recovered. His home was at
Jeffersonville, Ind, but no has re-
sided here for several months,

ingly, the three companies Joined
hands In the fight, which IL destined
to be q bitter one. Heretofore the
rate to san Frnncisco was as high as
that to Europe. 1t IL not thought
that the Western Union will meet the
cut at present, but should that COM
pany decide to meet the cut on money
orders, 1t is possible that the consoli-
dated companies will 90 one better by
sending such transfers free OF charge.
The route of the new channel of com.

Two Men Quarrel About n Sian
derous Remark-BOth Will Die.

PIrrsBURa, Pa, April 30.-Intelli-
gence was received here OF q probable
double tragedy this morning at Rose
burg StatIoD, twelve miles west of this
city, on the Fort Wayne road. 1t APP
pears that Abe McCrea and John
Gibbs quarreled over a disparaRing
remark made by thu latter about a
young lady. Hot words ensued, when
Gibbe, who is a cripple, raised his
cane and etruck MCCrea a powerful
blow over the head. McOrea had been
hunting, and carried a shotgun. When
he was struck he staggered and fell,
but recovered, and quickly raising his
gun fired the contents into Gibbs's
face, blowing off a portion Of his jaw
and head. Both men are in a critical
condition. McCrea's skull is eaid to
be fractured, and Gibbs is not ex-
pected to survivs many hours. The
affair has created great excitement, as
the parties are we'll known.

A Robber at His Deyotions.

When General Martinez, of Mexico, was
fighting against Macmillan, he and his
soldiers were in the habit Of taking what
they wanted from the people, ever going
sc far as to levy on the treasures OF the
churches. One day the sacristan of a
certain church found two Of the soldiers
from the army Of Martinez on their knees
before the altar of Our Lady Of Guada-
lupe. The shrine was covered with coins
and jewels placed by devotees on offering
up prayer for the safety Of absent ones or
in gratitude for deliverance from some
peril. And one of the 'machetercs" was
praying like this;
"My dear, holy lady, I'm a poor boy.
I've been in the army a year, and l
haven't made anything so far. I've a very
poor family. They may be starving. I'm
Obliged to take some of these precious
things. II / have good luck in robbing

So saying he arose from his knees,
walked up and cooly swept the shrine Of
the valuables. New York Tribune.

The Engagement Dinner"

A feature Of social life that has been In
existence in Philadelphia for n long time
and that is also prncticed somewhat in
fashionable circles elsewhere, is the Sen
gagcmcnt dinner" Nothing can 60 on or
of in Philadelphia without n dinner. a din
ner IS given when a girl makes her debut,
she is given n dinner on the eve OF her
marriage, tho bridegroom gives n farewell
bachelor dinner, they are given q dinner
on returning from their trip and they are
expected 10 give n dinner in return. These
dinners to announce engagements are usu-
ally, though not always, given by a rela-
tive Of the girl. Generally the purpose is
slyly known, but sometimes tho guests. or
some Of them, at least, are surprised. The
father or nearest male relative Of the lady
usually makes the announcement at the
close OF the dinner and a pretty practice
sometimes INDUCED is for each guest to
pick up q flower and throw it at the
~flancee, who is thus met with a rose
shower from all sides OF the table. On
this occasion also the bridegroom elect
often kisses his mother-in-law elect, and
the father Of the benedict in turn kisses
the fiancee .-Philadelphia Times.

Yachting as a Sport n Excellence.

Yachting is grown to be the sport par
excellence of the idle rich. 1t has that
unspeakable charm Of exclusiveness,
owing to its ruinous expense. More new
vessels have been ordered this season than
ever before, but there is not n disposition
to build steam yachts. They are not so
expensive as TO tax the resources Of the
wealthy-for New York contains q sur
prisingly large number who are really en-
barrassed by the sheer mount of their
m%oney-but the incidents of life in them
are unpleasant. The noise and smell are
the same as those of a steamer The dis
cipline, with so much machinery to man
age, is extremely straight. The posses
sion of a steam yacht is said, by those
who w such craft, TO be a fact which

Method OF Eating Bananas.

1t was at this very dinner party, by the
way, that ] had al opportunity to OBJ
serve, for the first time, the newest fash
ionable method Of eating bananas. The
proper way, it seems, to discuss that u
tritious vegetable is to nibble it gingerly
in slices from the point Of a dessert knife
blade. The blade should be held lightly
between the thumb and forefinger, with
the other digits extended as widely as pos
sible, the operation thus exhibiting a deli
cacy that distinguishes it from the ordi-
nary cut throat hash scooping of the pie
beian boarding house. This style Of COB
bling, when applied to other comestibles,
is unutterably vulgar; but so far as ba-
nanas are concerned, fashion has declared
it quite the thing.-Boston Cor. Globe
